Investigation was completed to compare relative destructive effect or to determine single-axle loading which would produce same destructive effect as that resulting from dual-wheel single-axle legal loading of 18,000 lb; two criteria of destructive effect selected for this investigation were pavement deflection and strain; deflection measurements were made using linear variable differential transformer gage installations and Benkelman beam; relationships between tire pressure, pavement temperature, axle loading, pavement deflection, surface tensile strain, and type of wheel loading are presented.
